Mermaid power

Second swim done!



a quick solo swim in between classes for me today! The unimelb pool was freezing but with how muggy it is outside it was a welcome plunge 🏊‍♀️

We’re swimming to save lives



We’re swimming for better funding and support for youth mental health in Australia. Suicide is the leading cause of death for young people in Australia - and it is preventable. After experiencing the sudden unexpected loss of friends we made the decision to carve out specific time to exercise and spend time together, to create a safe space for our mental health and have a dedicated time to ‘be Mermaids’. This March we are being Mermaids for a cumulative 5km (which will be a challenge as neither of us are ‘swimmers’) to ensure that young Australians have access to the mental health support they so urgently need. By sponsoring our challenge you will be helping ReachOut to prevent youth suicide.

Our Impact

So far this year we helped provide...

421

Young people with vital mental health support.
